22. MM calculations have shown that the boat and chair conformations of shape-persistent phenylene ethynylene macrocycles of this type are energetically slightly favored over the planar conformation (ref 7). A computational analysis explaining at a molecular level the preference of 2 for dimerization over oligomerization is in progress.
